About Les Ferranelles
Les Ferranelles is a Medes Islands boat dive on a shallow reef slope south of Ferranelles island, with coral beds, posidonia, and sandy zones that concentrate a lot of fish life. It is a guided dive in a protected reserve, where current and wind matter more on the exposed side and the shallow relief makes the site feel lively rather than flat.
